Another front page story.  This time it's about our final four chances.

Maybe this is buried in another thread, but what's the best championship gear anyone has found? Gotta make some decisions on what to buy.

I bought one of the mesh "trucker hats" they were all wearing last night on Fanatics website:

They're not cheap (nothing is these days...thank you politicians!) but I like the look of them.

I don't think it is for sale, but I want the hoodie that Shaka was wearing in the post game presser last night.  It was a grey hoodie with the Jumpman logo in Gold on it right above the MU logo.

$42 (with free shipping) for a freaking hat?

Well, cost of hat $5 plus licensing fees - the Big East probably gets some of it, and then so maybe Marquette!   Goo Marquette!  What a season so far!

The Bog East can be quite the quagmire.

I don't  think those are  from the Spirit Shop...limited MU income...I'd  wait  a bit and see what comes   up in Campus store this week.

As for the article ...

It had a paragraph with all kinds of computer metrics suggesting Marquette shouldn't be as good as we've been and indicating the odds are against us keeping it going.

And speaking of "F#ck 'em" ... I liked this from the article:

When Colby Jones drove for Xavier's first bucket after halftime Saturday, Kolek received the inbound pass and glared at Oso Ighodaro, his roommate and his team's best rim protector. "Block that s–!" Kolek barked, adding another choice bomb for emphasis as he dribbled up the floor.
